Ricky

Ricky, known on X as rcmisk, is a Boston-based software engineer who builds his own products in the hours around a 9-to-5 he enjoys, where he works mostly on Java, Spark and large-scale streaming pipelines. He shares his numbers and lessons openly while trying to vibe-code his way to financial independence.

His main product is vibedraft, which started as an X writing tool that learns from a user's recent posts, drafts in their voice and schedules posts, and is being repositioned around finding a product's first paying customers. He also shipped ideaverify, an AI tool that turns a startup idea into a landing page with tracking and a distribution plan for validation before building. vibedraft is listed with verified revenue on TrustMRR.
